  9. Zinc flake coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_flake_coating

    In contrast to paints where the risk of sub-surface corrosion creep exists, this phenomenon is avoided through the sacrificial effect of the zinc. In salt spray test ­s zinc flake coatings demonstrate better protection against corrosion than a typical galvanic zinc coating, which in the tests (generally run in accordance with ISO 9227) often ...
